I emailed Bookish First and was told they’re looking into it.
No word on Devil is Fine still…
@letstalkbooksyall There was actually on Friday BookishFirst emailed me back saying the publisher sent them out later than anticipated but they were en route. I received that email after reaching out twice.
I got that same response, but that was… last week? No idea what’s up with that. And still no word on Thirsty, which releases next Tuesday.
@katnortonwriter Several of the last raffles are massively delayed I hope they eventually ship.
Looks like Thirsty will now ship after the launch date. Thanks for the update, they must have just changed that!
That’s so frustrating but great to know
Does anyone have experience with getting a book after the pub date? It won’t be possible for us to leave a review for Thirsty on Amazon and get the bonus points on its publishing date if we haven’t received it yet… Do they extend a grace period for that or anything?
I have not gotten a book after pub day before but I would love to know this too @bookishfirst_team
You could ask, but typically no since BookishFirst isn’t the one shipping the book so they aren’t really on the hook for it’s timing.This was a huge problem in 2020 and 2021 when there were global shipping issues, and as far as I know they never did anything for people in that situation. It’s just kind of like, too bad, at least you still get a free book.
Has anyone received Masquerade yet?
No I haven’t received that yet.
I received “Devil Is Fine” via USPS from NY and Thirsty via UPS from VA.
“Thirsty” just arrived… still waiting on Devil is Fine but’s nice to know they’re out there.
@katnortonwriter Hopefully it will come soon. I got my copy the other day. I’m also still waiting for Masquerade and some folks have gotten that, so it seems like the books are slowly starting to be delivered after such a long delay.
Anyone still waiting on Masquerade I’m just curious.
I am also still waiting for this one.
Has anyone received sun memos yet?
